This vacation is becoming ridiculous. It must be a dream. My friends and I arrived in Seoul, South Korea on Monday and that night, I met Jung Hae In. On Tuesday, I woke up in his house and he drove me to my airbnb after my phone broke down. On Wednesday, my friends went to Jeju and I have the house for the week. On Thursday, Jung Hae In kissed me. Today is Friday and guess how crazy it turned out. Jung Hae In confessed to me and I became an emotional wreck. I also asked him to leave my place. It's only been five days and that much has already happened to me. This vacation is supposed to be fun and create beautiful memories but it's turning into a thriller movie.

I stayed in my room the whole day. I kept replaying what happened that morning in my mind. I'll call my friends. They'll know what to do. I immediately videocalled them.

"You look so ugly! Did you not shower when we're gone?" Judy exclaimed.

"What happened, Elle?" Ruth sounded concerned.

I start tearing up.

"Elle! Why are you suddenly crying?" Judy is suprised

"The guy." I said sadly.

"The phone guy? What did he do to you?" Ruth looks angry.

"He confessed today." I balled. I told them every detail from the beginning up till now.

Judy laughed. "Elle, Why are you so dense? You're a graduate in nursing but you can't figure this out?"

"Hey, why are you suddenly attacking me?" I complained .

"Elle, You like him more than a friend. It explains why you went psycho on him." She chuckled. "You denied him because he was older than you. He didn't fit your standard and that made you doubt yourself. You feel heartbroken because you like him but you can't have him." Ruth explained effortlessly.

"What? Are you telling me that our relationship was not platonic at all?"

"Yes!" Ruth and Judy shouted at me.

"You flirted with him, Elle! You hugged him, linked arms with him, acted cute around him and invited him to our place. Friends don't look at each other like what you described to us." Judy sounded excited.

"Also, you confessed to him too, Elle. You just didn't know it because you were caught off guard." Ruth added.

I cried harder this time.

"We wish we could be there for you, Elle! But you have to handle this on your own. You need your space. If we come back, we might worsen it. It's Jung Hae in for god's sake! You hit the jackpot bitch! Judy tried comforting me.

"Ruth?" I pleaded.

"I'm sorry, Elle. This is your relationship. We can't change anything even if we come back. You have to decide soon. The sooner you decide, the sooner you'll feel better.

"Decide on what?"

"Are you kidding me, Elle? Should I spell it out for you? You didn't dump him. You basically asked him to wait for your response." Judy got triggered.

"What?" I suddenly stopped sobbing.

"Elle, listen. You don't have to decide now. You need to be clear-headed when you finally decide if you're willing to abandon your belief for him or not. We want you to be happy but you have to do this alone." Ruth comforted me. She has a way with her words.

"Thanks guys! I feel much better than before. Call you soon!"

"If you decide before we come back then tell us, okay?!"

"Sure, I'm hanging up!" The call ended.

I can't believe this. How can I be so clueless. I laughed but became sullen again. I decided to sleep it off. My emotional and logical capacity reached its limit.
